Un ultimo saluto a Carmen e sono di nuovo solo. Di nuovo dopo piu' di tre mesi, da quando sono arrivato a Darwin quel pomeriggio di meta' dicembre. L'autobus per Perth arriva alla stazione di Albany e si porta via l'ultima superstite della compagnia di zingari con cui ho passato le scorse settimane. E' stata una fantastica compagna di viaggio in...

Day 85-86 Shannon National Park Mon Feb 23rd - Tues Feb 24th 2009 From Walpole to Shannon National Park (a whole 55km) we had taken a short break from any "UP's" this stay. Expecting a morning tea break we were drawn by the magnificent surrounds of towering Karri trees in Shannon National Park into an overnight stay. It's close enough to check o...

WALPOLE 30 November to 2 December 2008 We thought that Walpole would have been bigger than it actually is. There is a great couple of inlets and we decide to stay at a caravan park on the smaller inlet. There appears to be a fishing competition on today as there is a lot of people about on the jetty and foreshore of the park, it is Sunday after...

Note: living in a van is zero craic when it rains. This stop was for the boys to go climbing, not that they got much done, as the weather was horrendous. Rain rain rain rain rain rain. At least it wasn't cold I suppose..... A minor plus was that the fire ban was over in this shire, so at least we could cosy up round the fire. Yet again, our MASS...

I just got off course, but I had a french Canadian intern to do all the work for me (I think the world needs more interns) so far more interesting was the local's BBQ. The local's BBQ is a yearly event where we invite members of the community to come up to base, have dinner, and, as my boss put it, "we attempt to show them that we are in fact no...

Now it's not what you think you filthy minds. The Tingle tree is a giant among the world of... well trees. Apparently it's size is only surpassed by the mighty Canadian Redwoods. Debs and I undertook a climb 40 metres up into the canopies of these goliaths, moving from tree to tree with the ease and grace of a couple of hairy apes. OK ok there w...

Moving on from Denmark we stayed in Karri forest. It was Australia Day and a national bank holiday so the place was full. It wasn't much different to a normal weekend as everyone just sat around, had bbq's and drank beer. The weather has gone really warm again now and the nights are unbearably hot. We never got up to much other than go for a wal...

This is the reason we headed south; to see, and walk in the canopy of, the giant tingles. These trees are massive in breadth and neck-achingly tall, more than that the only place you'll find them in the whole world is in this small corner of Australia. Here, Western Australia has spent a bit of money and errected a six-hundred metre long, forty-...

Walpole and the weather is stormy, showery, windy & rather cold. Though the sunshine is as bright as ever when it decides to make an appearance! However, it has a great telecentre for Internet access... Yesterday was mostly spent in & around Pemberton, WA. As the weather was wet I took the Pemberton Tram Company's tram up through the Kar...
